“He’s been getting up to speed having not played since March but there are glimpses of why O’Neill brought him in. Sit in front of the back four and show composure amid the madness of the Championship. He has more time and space than anyone else,”Pete told
Birmingham.co.uk.
“He set up the winner for Lee Gregory at Preston last weekend but don’t expect him to be getting in the opposition box too much.”
Stoke City will host Birmingham City in their next Championship clash on Sunday.
